Tasting Note:

A blend that produces a wine that is more complex than the best of its two constituents. "Les Terres Rouges" gives it richness, smoothness, and aromas of red or even black fruits in some vintages. "Les Terres Blanches" expresses itself through spice, white flowers, and even red peony with its peppery notes. The fusion of the two terroirs gives birth to a wine that combines smoothness and rigidity, fruitiness and minerality, the strength of a Morey Saint Denis with the complexity of a Chambolle Musigny!

Terroir:

The Grand Cru "Bonnes Mares" is one of the two Grands Crus of the Chambolle Musigny appellation. Located north of Chambolle.

Ratings & Reviews

97-99 Points - Jasper Morris' Inside Burgundy:

Significantly richer and deeper in colour, we are in fully sumptuous territory here. This is a great Bonnes Mares with layer after layer of fruit and the strict structure of Roumier wines which guaranteed s long ageing. The quality and intensity of the dark berried fruit are amazing, and there is no sense of over-ripeness. Instead, a brilliant fresh feel to the finish with crisp white pepper. 75-80% whole bunches used. Drink from 2032-2045. Tasted Nov 2024. - Jasper Morris (Nov 2024)

95-97 Points - Vinous Media:"The 2023 Bonnes-Mares Grand Cru is comprised of four different cuvées this year. Some fruit was declassified and blended with the Bourgogne Rouge. The fermenters were full this vintage. The bouquet has fabulous delineation, with subtle mineral/crushed stone infusing the blackberry and blueberry fruit. The palate is supremely well balanced with wonderful structure and tension from the start. It's classic in style, though it will need a few years to absorb the 75% whole bunch. It will be worth the wait. (Drink between 2028-2055)" – Neal Martin (Jan 2025)

93-96 Points - Burghound:

"A slightly riper nose features notes of poached plum, discreet spice and a plethora of floral elements, especially violet, lilac and rose petal. The broad-shouldered flavors are rich to the point of opulence while coating the palate with sappy dry extract on the hugely long, balanced and even firmer finale where a touch of bitter chocolate eventually appears. This is a big but harmonious wine that could probably be approached after 10-ish years or so. In a word, terrific." - Alan Meadows (Jan 2025)
